Stage of implement, a space for the group learning

Once made the policy, was achieved an approach to la AECID, organisation that wasestablished in 2006 an agreement of bilateral cooperation valid until march of 2010

With these resources, actions are developed facing the three orientative lineamentsof the Young peoples policy which have proposals and punctual objectives. The oneof youth social participation has oriented its actions in two ways, on the one hand,to strengthen the diverse applications, mechanisms and instruments of youth socialparticipation in the department, and, on the other, to shape a system of socialinformation (childhood, adolescence and Young peoples observatory) as aninstrument of taking decisions, follow-up of the policy and evaluation of the localand department public business. The lineament of peaceful coexistence has focusedon two aspects; the first one on strengthening an institutional network and on youth

social organisations that promote the region Young peoples potentialities, throughthe development of citizen exercises aimed at fostering a peaceful andcoexistence culture in the department, and the second one , on generating meetingdynamics and youth coexistence through the cultural development , the training ofpublic critics, the use of public spaces and the articulation of local and regionalinstitutional offer on the matter.

lineaments and guarantee the equality of genders, and two, aimed at generatingpublic and private strategic alliances that strengthen the design, the start and thesustainability of new businessmens plans.

In general, the implement of youth policy has counted on economical resources andhuman talent, on planning of activities year by year and on the participation ofdiverse actors, so that it integrates the necessary elements that justify them: anarranged programmed sequence of actions and activities that entail manyreiterative, progressive, individual and collective operations and that search thespecific means to achieve the a planned objective.
